Former education secretary and declared presidential aspirant Raul Roco yesterday claimed rejecting an offer by allies of President Arroyo to be her running mate for the May 2004 presidential elections.


Roco made the disclosure as he virtually confirmed plans by Mrs. Arroyo to seek a full term in next year’s polls.


"Essentially, they (allies) were asking me to be the vice presidential candidate... We reject any and all invitations to be the vice president to President Arroyo or anybody else for that matter," he said.
